Abstract

An image transcription method of transcribing an image of the dye on a printing sheet outputted by e.g., a video printer onto a substrate for transcription, such as a cup of pottery or the like. For transcription, a resin is coated on the surface of the substrate for transcription to form a reception layer. This reception layer is dried in an electrical oven to form a support for transcription. A printing sheet carrying an image of a sublimable dye is stacked on the reception layer of the support for transcription and pressured to the reception layer under application of heat and pressure. As the resin for the reception layer, the acrylic resin or the epoxy resin or both are employed. If the resin composed mainly of the acrylic resin is employed, the viscosity of the resin is set to 43 to 52 seconds in terms of the Ford cup viscosity, and the resin discharge pressure from a spray gun is set to 35 kg/m2+-0.01 kg.cm2. The distance between the spray gun and the substrate for transcription is set to 100 mm+-5 mm, while the drying temperature is 170 to 180 DEG C. The thickness of the reception layer is 10 to 50 mm. After transcribing the image of the sublimable dye to the reception layer, a transparent film is bonded, if necessary, as a protective film on the reception layer.

Description

Transfer printing body and colour band that image transfer printing method and this method are used
Technical field
The present invention relates to be used for the pattern heat from outputs such as image printers is printed to image transfer printing method on the transfer article, and then, relate to transfer article and colour band that this method is used.Background technology
For example, the image printer with the image input heat sublimation mode of picked-up such as image reading apparatus or television camera is printed on it on photographic pape, can equally with silver halide photography handle, but obtains various images by popularizing just relaxation and happiness ground.
Wherein, also attempted the interesting method different, developed output image with image printer and be transferred to for example new commodity on the cup (so-called ceramic cup) of pottery system of transfer article arbitrarily with silver halide photography.If the static television image that utilizes shootings such as electronic still video camera can be transferred on ceramic cup etc. then and there at in-situ match etc. and sell, commodity value will be very large.
When being transferred to the output image of image printer on the transfer article as described above, on the surface of transfer article, need the bearing material layer that is used for fixing dyestuff, even only think that merely with the surface of dye transfer to ceramic cup, dyestuff can not be fixed in the above yet.
The bearing material layer is required to have excellent weather resisteant etc., mainly be to use the epoxy series plastics so far.
The epoxy series plastics is thermosetting resin, by with its coating and be sintered to for example surface of ceramic cup, can form the bearing material layer of weather resisteant excellence.
Yet in above-mentioned image transfer printing method, the characteristic of bearing material layer has very big influence to quality of the image that obtains etc., and an urgent demand improves.
For example, when using the coating of various resins to form the bearing material layer, all be to utilize hot-air drying stove etc. to carry out drying process so far, still,, there is the problem of bearing material layer variable color owing to reasons such as temperature controlled difficulty.
Perhaps, when utilizing the epoxy series plastics to form the bearing material layer, and the needed time of transfer printing work is long.
For example, for ceramic cup,, under 170 ℃ of printing machine temperature, need about 3 minutes transfer printing time if want output image transfer printing sublimable dye according to image printer with the bearing material layer that constitutes by the epoxy series plastics.
If consider a large amount of production, then short more production efficiency is high more the transfer printing time, and still, 3 minutes transfer printing time can not say so short.Particularly at in-situ match etc., the static television image that utilizes shooting such as electronic still video camera is transferred to ceramic cup etc. then and there goes up when selling, because by the treatable quantity of transfer printing time decision, so what transfer printing need 3 minutes is very disadvantageous for a long time.
In addition, though for example itself durability and weather resisteant of the bearing material layer that is made of the epoxy series plastics is excellent,, being transferred to dyestuff on it just attached on the bearing material layer, its weather resisteant can not be said so fully, might fade or variable color.In addition, also not enough aspect solvent resistance and resistance to chemical reagents, for example, when touching organic solvent etc., dye image will disappear very simply.
In addition, in order to improve transfer efficiency, above-mentioned bearing material layer normally makes its surface become smoothly, can only obtain reflecting the surface of outer light.Therefore, because apparent restriction, purposes is restricted, and for example, when requiring to resemble building materials etc. during various outward appearance, just can not adapt to this requirement.Disclosure of an invention
The present invention proposes in order to address these problems.
That is, purpose of the present invention aims to provide the image transfer printing method that can obtain high-quality transferred image.
In addition, the present invention also aims to provide the image transfer printing method and the transfer article of transfer printing sublimable dye image at short notice.
In addition, thus purpose of the present invention also will provide and is not limited to reflecting surface, can realizes that various surface state can adapt to the image transfer printing method of apparent various requirement.
In image transfer printing method of the present invention, at first, resin is coated to the surface of transfer printing matrix, form the bearing material layer, after utilizing electric furnace that this bearing material layer is carried out drying processing formation transfer article, the printing film (for example, photographic pape) that will have the sublimable dye image overlaps onto on the bearing material layer of above-mentioned transfer article, by the heating pressurization above-mentioned sublimable dye image is transferred on the above-mentioned bearing material layer.
Like this, the drying of using electric furnace to carry out the bearing material layer is handled, and can carry out accurate temperature control, thereby can suppress the variable color of bearing material layer, obtains the high transferred image of quality.In addition, can also solve simultaneously sneaking into of the foreign matter that becomes problem when utilizing hot-air drying stove to carry out dry the processing, thereby the quality that can suppress to cause owing to this reason reduces.
When application bearing material layer, when using ware system cup as the transfer printing matrix, with its back-off, utilize application to spray resin with spray gun, form the bearing material layer.
Particularly use with the acryloyl group resin as the resin of main body when forming the resin of bearing material layer, dry treatment temperature adopts 170～180 ℃, make the viscosity of resin is that Ford cup 43 seconds～52 seconds, application are 35kg/m with the resin pressure of spray gun ejection 2± 0.01kg/m 2, application is with spray gun and transfer printing matrix maintenance 100mm ± 5mm.The thickness that makes above-mentioned such bearing material layer that forms is 10～50 μ m.Like this, just, can form uniform bearing material layer.
By above-mentioned be transferred to the sublimable dye image on the bearing material layer like that after, transparent membrane can also be pasted on the bearing material layer.
As transparent membrane, for example can use the acryloyl group film.In addition, this transparent membrane also can contain ultra-violet absorber.Particularly, can realize various surface state by transparent membrane is carried out concavo-convex processing.
For example, in the time of will being transferred on the transfer article from the sublimable dye image of image printer output, owing to dye image just is attached on the bearing material layer that forms on the surface of transfer article, so, weather resisteant and solvent resistance, resistance to chemical reagents are poor, thereby can fade and variable color.
By transparent membranes such as acryloyl group resin film are pasted on the bearing material layer as the cover layer lamination, play the function of protective layer, just can improve weather resisteant and solvent resistance, resistance to chemical reagents significantly.
Though constituting the resin of bearing material layer is arbitrarily, for example form the bearing material layer of using epoxy series plastics and acryloyl group resin simultaneously, composing images transfer printing transfer article on the surface of transfer printing matrix.
At this moment, can form the 2nd bearing material layer, also can form the bearing material layer that contains epoxy series plastics and acryloyl group resin at the 1st bearing material layer superimposed layer based on the epoxy series plastics based on the acryloyl group resin.
The epoxy series plastics is brought into play excellent characteristic aspect durability and weather resisteant, still, when it was formed the bearing material layer, transfer speed was not high.
Though acryloyl group resin transfer speed is fast,, deficiency aspect weather resisteant.
In contrast,, bring into play both advantages, can satisfy requirement transfer speed and weather resisteant two aspects with the form of their complementations by using epoxy series plastics and acryloyl group resin simultaneously.
On the other hand, as the colour band that is used for the printing film is formed the sublimable dye image, can use on ribbon base by named order form side by side color different contain multiple uveal colour band, but, at this moment be preferably in and form lubricant containing on the uvea of lubricants such as containing silicone oil in the uvea or printing in the end containing of last printing and contain layer.
On ribbon base, forming different the containing in the multiple uveal colour band of color side by side by named order, form lubricant on the uvea containing of lubricant or printing in the end and contain layer if make in the end to contain in the uvea containing of printing, when this colour band was heated pressurization printing image on the printing film, pigment contained layer or lubricant and contains the lubricant that contains in the layer and will transfer to the printing film surface and be attached on it.
Like this, adhered to the printing film slickness good owing to lubricant has of lubricant, when overlapping onto on the transfer article such as ceramic cup transferred image, the bubble that enters between this printing film and the transfer article is outwards overflowed easily, thereby is difficult for taking place fold.Therefore, even on the printing film, do not carry out the wiper operation, also can on transfer article, transfer printing go out not have the not preferable image of transfer section with scraper plate.The simple declaration of accompanying drawing

As shown in Figure 1, image transfer printing method of the present invention roughly comprises by operation (the step J to transfer printing matrix coating bearing material layer resin 1) and utilize electric furnace that the resin of coating is carried out dry operation (the step J that forms transfer article that handles 2) the bearing material layer that constitutes forms operation, input rest image (step P 1) utilize image printer to printing film output sublimable dye image (step P 2) the printout operation, the printing film is overlapped (step T on the transfer article 1) carry out hot stamping brush (step T 2) transfer printing process and and then the transparent membrane of pasting transparent membrane (step L) as required on the surface of bearing material layer paste operation.
Below, each operation is described.Form the bearing material layer
At first, so that be that the special resin (U.S. dense clay corporate system, trade name M-II type) of main body is the formation method of example explanation bearing material layer as the situation of bearing material layer resin in order to the acryloyl group resin.
Here, the special resin of using is to be main body with the acryloyl group resin, is aided with to compose that matter pigment, adhesion promoters and defoamer form.
As composing matter pigment, silica, aluminium oxide, aluminosilicate, calcium carbonate, mica and silica flour etc. are arranged.Its use amount does not limit especially so long as to adjust the mobile needed amount of constituent just passable, still, for the acryloyl group resin of 100 parts of weight, 2～20 parts weight (preferably 2～4 parts about weight) normally.
As adhesion promoters, γ-glycidoxypropyltrime,hoxysilane, N-β (aminoethyl)-aminopropyl triethoxysilane, β-(3, the 4-epoxycyclohexyl) ethyl triethoxysilane and γ-silane such as chlorobutadiene triethoxysilane series couplant is arranged.Its use amount does not limit especially, still, for the acryloyl group resin of 100 parts of weight, 0.05～5 part weight (preferably 0.07～3 part about weight) normally.
As defoamer, well-known siloxane series defoamers such as polyester sex change methyl alkyl polysiloxanes and polyester sex change dimethyl silicone polymer are arranged.Its use amount does not limit especially, still, for the acryloyl group resin of 100 parts of weight, 0.05～5 part weight (preferably 0.07～3 part about weight) normally.
Above-mentioned special resin is mixed with organic solvent (for example dimethylbenzene etc.) with dilution, viscosity is adjusted in 43 seconds～52 seconds the scope of Ford cup (JIS standard), for example Ford cup is 48 seconds.When the viscosity of resin was lower than this numerical value, the bearing material layer was with attenuation, and transfer printing degenerates.In addition, when viscosity is too big, the uniformity of bearing material laminar surface will degenerate.
Like this, adjust mixing ratio after, the vacuum type coating machine that uses ノ-De ソ Application corporate system for example in positive direction with 0.12 second, then the upset back sprays it 0.29 second ceramic cup was being rotated in the other direction.
At this moment, if the time of coating is oversize, applied thickness will be too thick, and resin will solidify with the state that hangs, and on the contrary, if the time of coating is too short, the thickness of bearing material layer will be too thin, thereby transfer printing degenerates.
Reason with the ceramic cup upset during application is in order to eliminate the coating spot.(this condition is the condition under 25 ℃ of temperature, if temperature changes, condition also will change.)
The nozzle that uses when utilizing the vacuum type coating machine of ノ-De ソ Application corporate system to carry out application is the #4 type, #3 type or #5 type all be difficult to carry out good spraying.
In addition, application is at this moment pressed with the resin ejection of spray gun and is adopted 35kg/m 2± 0.01kg/m 2, to make application be 100mm ± 5mm with the distance between spray gun and the transfer printing matrix.
Through after the interval more than 180 seconds, the drying of carrying out in 170～180 ℃ drying oven more than 40 minutes is handled after the spraying.Drying oven is an electric furnace, if drying time is too short, resin can not solidify.If drying time is oversize, though, waste electric power to not influence of performance.
By carrying out above-mentioned processing, the bearing material layer that just can will be used for the image of the thermal transfer mode of transfer printing sublimability again on ceramic cup is applied as the thickness of 10～50 μ m.Here, if the thickness deficiency of bearing material layer 10 μ m, then the image of transfer printing is thinner.In addition, if thickness greater than 50 μ m, then resin will solidify with sagging state, and will be dirty thereby the surface seems.
By above-mentioned processing, just can form case hardness and reach whiteness and the N/R bearing material layer of other states that the intensity (by the JIS standard) of drawing with pencil is about 1H, surface.
The formation material of bearing material layer is not limited thereto, and for example, also can use epoxy series plastics and acryloyl group resin simultaneously.As the form of usefulness simultaneously, dual mode is arranged roughly.
At first, the 1st kind of form be the layer that will constitute by the epoxy series plastics with constitute by the acryloyl group resin layer overlapped, with it as the bearing material layer.
At this moment, what relation lamination number and laminated layer sequence do not have, still, if consider transfer efficiency etc., had better be behind coating sintering epoxy series plastics on the transfer printing matrix coating sintering acryloyl group resin thereon again.
When adopting above-mentioned laminated construction; preferably making the thickness (thickness of the thickness of epoxy series plastics layer+acryloyl resin bed) of whole bearing material layer is 10～50 μ m; in addition, the thickness that preferably makes the acryloyl group resin bed is 10～90% of whole thickness, is preferably 10～70% especially.No matter the thickness of acryloyl group resin bed is too thin also too thick, all might make with the epoxy series plastics simultaneously the meaning of usefulness weaken.
Above-mentioned epoxy series plastics layer and acryloyl resin bed can be respectively the resins based on epoxy series plastics or acryloyl resin, for example, also can be simultaneously with the resin beyond polyester series resin etc., epoxy series and the acryloyl series.In addition, for example, can also lamination form the layer that epoxy series and the resin beyond the acryloyl series by polyester series resin etc. constitute.
On the other hand, the 2nd kind of form be with coating sintering after epoxy series plastics and the acryloyl mixed with resin to the transfer printing matrix as the bearing material layer.
At this moment, the thickness of bearing material layer preferably remains 10～50 μ m.In addition, the ratio of the acryloyl resin that comprises in the bearing material layer is preferably 10～90 weight %, and 10～70 weight % are then better.
When like this epoxy series plastics and acryloyl mixed with resin being formed the bearing material layer, also can be for example with the mixed with resin beyond polyester series resin etc., epoxy series and the acryloyl series in the bearing material layer.In addition, can also be with stacked being added on this bearing material layer that for example constitutes by the epoxy series and the resin beyond the acryloyl series of polyester series resin etc.
In the present invention, can use article arbitrarily as the transfer printing matrix, still, ceramic product for example drinking glasses of ware system (so-called ceramic cup) etc. is optimum.Certainly, except ceramic cup, also can be applied on various ceramic tiles and the ware etc.Printing transferring method
At first, illustrate that output image with image printer is transferred to the method on the ceramic cup.
As shown in Figure 2, for example video camera 2 or image reading apparatus 3 are connected with the image printer 1 of heat sublimation mode during transfer printing, import image arbitrarily, by sublimable dye being transferred on the printing film 4 the printout image.
Fig. 3 utilizes will the be taken image of body and overlapping text of overlapping text to draw the system of synthetic output.
That is, in this system, utilize the subject 6 of video camera 2 photographed screen 5 fronts.And, draw from ready several overlapping texts and to select a kind ofly arbitrarily 8, utilize overlapping text device 9 that the overlapping text of selecting is drawn 8 and be added to and be defeated by image printer 1 on the image of video camera 2.At this moment, can utilize monitor 10 to confirm output images, thus can be to printing film 4 with the image printout liked.
Above-mentioned image printer 1 has structure shown in Figure 4.In this image printer 1, the analog input signal of supplying with analog input terminal 30 is transformed to data signal by A/D converter 31.Supply with the contact of switch 33 1 sides from the digital input signals of these A/D converter 31 outputs.In addition, the digital input signals of supply digital input end 32 is supplied with the contact of the opposite side of switch 33.Like this, the data signal of the analog input signal of the just changeable supply analog input of switch 33 terminal 30 and supply digital input end 32.
Analog input signal or digital input signals are supplied with this analog input terminal 30 or digital input end 32 from video camera.
Be arranged on the colored heat transfer colour ribbon 34 at offside reflection reflection of light body 35, on image printer, dispose reflective optical sensor 36 therewith accordingly with illuminating part and light accepting part.
And when should colour heat transfer colour ribbon 34 installing on the image printer, optical sensor 36 to reflector 35 irradiates lights, be received the reverberation that is reflected by reflector 35 from illuminating part by light accepting part.
Like this, optical sensor 36 just becomes opening state, is data supply controllers 37 of transfer medium with colored heat transfer colour ribbon 34 and printing film 4.At this moment, when colored heat transfer colour ribbon 34 and printing film 4 are non-transfer printings when using print media, owing to reflector 35 is not set in colored heat transfer colour ribbon 34 sides, so, optical sensor 36 still keeps closed condition, thereby can judge non-transfer printing print media.
On the other hand, memory 38 storages are read in the moment of appointment by the digital input signals that switch 33 switches.
Controller 37 carries out the control of this thermal transfer printer, is made of CPU.Controller 37 is from memory 38 sense datas, is to supply with monitor 41 after the analog signal by D/A converter 40 with digital signal conversion.
On monitor 41, show the signal of input, be used to utilize whether visual determination is need be with the signal that reverses about it with the form of the image and the Word message that superposeed.
Keyboard 39 is connected with controller 37, input indication utilize digital input signals that monitor 41 judges whether be need about the signal of counter-rotating.
Whether whether controller 37 be transfer printing with the input signal of the judgment data of print media and keyboard 39 be the corrective action of the input Data Control γ correction circuit 42 of the signal that reverses about needs according to optical sensor 36.
γ correction circuit 42 is when utilizing heating head that heat transfer colour ribbon 34 is carried out hot pressing and prints on printing film 4, for the concentration that makes the transferred image after the transfer printing suitable, carry out γ and revise, to make it not influence the transfer printing that constitutes by colored heat transfer colour ribbon 34 and printing film 4 with the color development characteristic of print media etc.Here, be whether transfer printing is that the signal that reverses about needs changes the characteristic that γ revises with print media or non-transfer printing with print media and input signal particularly according to colored heat transfer colour ribbon 34 and printing film 4.
Digital input signals is supplied with heating heads 44 by heating head driver 43 carried out the suitable γ correction corresponding with print media by this γ correction circuit 42 after.Heating head 44 is printed onto image on the printing film 4 after colored heat transfer colour ribbon 34 is heated.
The colour band that image printer 1 uses is arbitrarily, but, in order to make transfer printing better, also can use as shown in Figure 5 and on ribbon base 51, arrange the colour band that contains lubricant in the uvea that contains that in the end prints in the colour band that forms by named order at the different a plurality of uveas 52 that contain of color.
Above-mentioned a plurality of uvea 52 that contains is containing yellow, magenta or dark green forming in the resin material arbitrarily, for example, as shown in Figure 6, by contain uranidin layer Y, contain pinkish red uvea M, the dark green order that contains layer C arranges repeatedly on ribbon base 51 and forms.And, in this colour band, contain in the uvea particularly containing to contain among the dark green uvea C and being useful on the lubricant that makes the printing film surface more smooth of printing in the end at 3 kinds.
